| Abstract |

Comparison of Wang Yangming and Toeong

Sungchol on their understanding of the Mind
appeared in the various materials from Toeong

Choi, Jae-mok
Yeungnam University

This paper aims at studying the mind and performance theory
comparatively between Wang Yangming and Toeong Sungchol.

Wang Yangming, one of the well known Neo-confucian
thinkers during the Ming Dynasty in China, is famous for his

understanding of the mind called Shim Hak, while Toeong
Sungchol, one of the most famous Seon masters in contemporary

Korea, leaves a rich legacy of Korean Seon contemplative
meditation tradition especially in the Sudden Awakening and

Sudden practice.
Both Yanming and Toeong, having accomplished their

awakening of the mind, started to establish their theory of
the mind by philosophically theorizing, systematizing, and

storytelling on the basis of their awakening experience.
